Calendar
Call for an audition time. Prepare 16 -32 bars of a song to sing with sheet music. Musical Theater or Disney songs preferred. Wear clothes & shoes you can dance in. A short combination will be taught to you.
Please have costume fees for the Summer Showcase Paid in Full. This is also the last day to OPT-OUT of the Showcase.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The office assumes each student will perform and will be measured, billed and costumed ordered unless a parent advises the office of non-participation or of duplicate costumes. Each class (except technique classes) will perform in the showcase. All June Tuition & Account balances must be paid in full prior to the performances. (The students in Ballet/Tap or Peewee classes will be split into 6 casts. The Jr. classes may be split into 3 casts along with some additional classes.) All students remain backstage and will NOT be released before the end of show. This is for the performers’ safety, security, and fairness of audience size.
COSTUMES:
A costume, selected by the teacher, will ordered and paid for by the parents. We are working very hard to find costumes that are in the $45-85 dollar range. There are NO REFUNDS. Costumes need to be PAID in Full by February 15th.
We hope our students use this opportunity to get to know one another and form friendships that make them eager to be a part of the VSPA community and get involved in all aspects of the performing arts. Art is a social experience, and our commitment to the learning process includes exposing our students to as much performing arts as possible. This is a chance to make the kinds of connections that encourage our students to participate and engage and build the kind of bonds where-in they will support and be there for one another.
We will be closed for President’s Day.
Tuition is based on a four-week month. Five-week months will be applied to studio holidays or vacation days. (This Excludes Private Lessons)
It is the responsibility of the student to make-up missed classes within a month from when the closure occurred. Make-up classes may not be taken in the same class in which the absence occurred. Make-up lessons are non-transferable.
The Music Man follows fast-talking traveling salesman, Harold Hill, as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys’ band that he vows to organize – this, despite the fact that he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian, the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall.
